""If you have to work with Windows, you have to read this book."" —Niel Infante, Senior Engineer, Ginkgo Bioworks ""Having worked professionally in IT since prior to the internet having pictures, I thought I knew bat files. Within the first 30 minutes, I learned things that Batch could do that I never had a clue about. It was a dazzling, factual read mixed with full syntax detail and humor along the way. Highly recommended for anyone as a fun trip down memory lane or an excellent reference in those times of need!"" —Dave Mullen, Senior IT Manager, Windows Administrator, and Cybersecurity Engineer ""Playfully written and technically robust, Jack’s book is fantastic. It is a painless introduction to bat files for beginners and an invaluable reference for experts. Careful scaffolding in the early chapters eases learner anxiety and cognitive overload while providing an immediate payout of practical applications and a robust basis to move forward. Later chapters provide structure for advanced topics, templates to build on, and a thorough examination of bat files, providing amazing functionality and flexibility I did not know was possible."" —Dr. Nicole Engelke, Professor and Director of Quantitative Reasoning, University of Nebraska at Omaha
